You don't need any confirmations to spend a transaction to somewhere else. Some wallets will not let you do this but some will. The Bitcoin network doesn't require confirmations to spend coins. However, transactions made based on previous transactions which haven't confirmed will also not be able to confirm.

If you want to know how many confirmations you need before considering the coins safely yours the more the better, but 6 is safe under most circumstances and always get at least 1.

It depends... Depends on your wallet, if you are transfering to an exchange site depends on site. Mostly 3 will be enough.

It depends on where you transacted it to. Usually some sites even allow you to use your bitcoins at 0 confirmation ( early confirmation) and most would require at least 1 confirmations.

A minimum of 3 confirmation is a must to use it further, else it gets listed under the unconfirmed transaction list. For a single transaction you get hundreds of confirmations in a very small time.

But 1 Confirmation should be secure enough it will be very hard if not impossible to double spend if 1 confirmation is done!

I agree, 1 is quite enough but if you're running an exchange website 2 - 3 confirmation would be a good thing for security precaution

It depends on the wallet you use. For electrum wallet 1 confirmation is enough to let you spend coins. If you are receiving the coins you should wait for 2-4 confirmations before sending the goods or digital goods.

1 is enough. It is very safe. Once 1 confirmation happens then all the rest will follow that is how it works.

1 is enough to be able to spend the btc in your wallet. However the time you need to ait for a transaction differs depends on how much fee you put in it and how fast transactions are being confirmed in the network. There are some cases where the blockchain takes longer than usual but if you pay atleast enough fee it will get confirmed in less than 30 mins.

After first confirmation we could have confirm that we will reach the bitcoin to our wallet in next few minutes. Some of the transaction needs 6 confirmations to complete the trade but some transaction will be completed with 3 confirmations. miners hashing power always play main role to transact the bitcoins as its pass via blocks.
